Verdict

The Samsung Galaxy Tab 2 7.0 P3100 is a portable 7-inch tablet featuring a PLS LCD display with a 1024 x 600 resolution and integrated 3G HSPA connectivity for on-the-go data and voice calls. It is powered by a 1.0 GHz dual-core TI OMAP 4430 processor paired with 1GB of RAM and, in this specific configuration, offers 32GB of internal storage expandable via a dedicated microSDHC slot (up to 32GB). Its main characteristics include a 4,000mAh battery providing respectable longevity, dual cameras (3.15MP rear and VGA front), and the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system with Samsung's TouchWiz UX. Key pros are its compact, lightweight design, solid build quality, and the inclusion of an IR blaster for remote control functionality. However, it suffers from a relatively low-resolution screen compared to newer rivals, lack of an LED flash or autofocus for the camera, and hardware that may struggle with high-end, modern applications.
